It's okay.

Good morning.

Good morning.

You ready?

Yep.

Come on, bud.

Come on.

Come on, kiddo. We gotta get you competition ready, all right?

Let's do one more and finish strong.

Heels down.

More impulsion, more impulsion.

Let's go.

All right, that's enough for today.

Looks like our guest is here.

Hey, welcome home.

Hey.

Stickers on your cane?

I thought that you got better.

Did you get a haircut?

Yeah.

Anyway, Jodie's training's almost done

for the rest of the day, so you help me out tomorrow.

I'm retired.

Good to know.

All right, let's get back at it.

You said we were done.

I'm down to go another 30 minutes if you are.

No, I'm good.

Thanks.

I'll take that as a no.

Is something wrong?

I'm just not feeling it today.

I don't want to talk about it.

- I remember when I was that age. - What age?

The age where you don't want anything from anyone.

You mean you last year?

I guess I'm maturing faster than you.

There's the teenage angst attitude.

Welcome to the circus, kid.

Just leave me alone.

Is everything okay?

Was I that bad?

I wish. That was nothing.

Whatever.

So you'll be our authorized agent for health care decisions.

- Absolutely. - Okay.

Absolutely.

Bridgett, darling, you're home.

How was your drive?

It was okay.

What's all this?

Financial business.

It's none of your concern.

Is it okay if I just go to my room?

I was going to say hey, but I'm a little tired.

Of course.

Rest well, sweetheart.

And now where were we?

You were finishing signing all the documents.

Okay.

Are you sure?

Changing power of attorney

can be a scary thing, Mrs. Van Heusen.

But let me assure you, this is in the best interest

for all parties.

Think of all the good we can do and how quickly

we'll be able to do it.

Mark's been with us for years.

Where's Barkley?

Barkley is in a competition today with Jodie.

Barkley's my horse, not hers.

He's my horse, dear.

I allow you to ride him.

Really?

I didn't think you cared about anything other than money

and the family name.

Bridgett, I only want what's-- are you all right?

I'm fine!

If you like, I can have someone walk you back to your--

I can walk by myself!

I don't need your version of help for anything.

Wow, don't you just look amazing this morning.

Where's mom?

I made your favorite, bacon.

You need a good breakfast before we go to the show.

Where's mom?

I thought I was taking you to the show today.

It'll be fun, the two of us.

She's with Rick at the racetrack, isn't she?

Yes, but-- but-- but she'll be--

she'll be back before we get home, sweetie.

No, she won't.

Yeah, she--

Hey, bug.

You're here.

That's surprising.

Of course I am.

I said I would be.

Sorry if I don't trust everything you say right now.

Sorry you had to see that.

Ever since I started seeing Rick, she's been--

You don't need to apologize about anything.

To tell you the truth, I knew that she's been upset lately,

but I just didn't know what it was about.

Look, I should really get Barkley home.

Yeah.

Thanks, James.

Hey, you're in a better mood today?

Yeah.

Are you?

Yeah.

My pain medication can make me feel off.

Yeah, I can tell.

So, what's been bugging you?

Anything you want to talk about?

Well, if you ever feel like you need to let it out, I'm here.

Thanks.

It feels weird seeing my parents get along so well.

They're actually pretty nice now.

I mean, he's a little grouchy sometimes.

But ever since she stopped drinking, she's been pretty sweet.

I guess I'm just not used to seeing them happy.

But it's good, right?

Our parents should be happy.

I don't know.

I guess it doesn't feel like home.

Let's get some lunch.

I'm hungry.

Are you hungry?

Because I'm pretty hungry.

- I could eat. - Okay, perfect.

I know just the place.

Come on.

I'm driving.

Frazer's?

Yeah, what's wrong with it?

Nothing.

I just haven't been here since, like, the fourth grade.

Well, it's time for a refresher.

Do you want to eat outside or inside?

Outside's good.

Hey, Jodie.

How are you?

Hey, Dylan.

I'm all right.

I brought a friend.

I want you to meet.

Bridgett?

Hi, I'm Bridgett.

Hi, I'm Dylan.

Nice to meet you.

You'll have to excuse her.

She's never been here before.

I've been here before.

When I was a kid, I ate here a few times.

Me, too.

Looks like we have that in common.

We're going to go take a seat and figure out this menu.

Can you get us some water in the meantime?

Sure thing.

Yeah, two waters coming right up.

Finally.

What?

A boy finally took your breath away.

I was beginning to wonder if you were from this planet.

Hey, daydreamer, your waters.

Thanks.

Take it easy on 'em if you're going to drive.

You ladies let me know when you're ready to order.

We're going to need a few minutes.

Not a problem.

Just get my attention when you need me.

Oh, she will.

Hey, what's going on, Ronald?

Sorry I'm a little late.

Where are the girls?

They've gone out for a bit.

They should be back any moment.

What's going on?

Sir, you've not heard the news?

Missing?

What do you mean he's missing?

Well, find him.

Fix this!

Ugh.

Mr. and Mrs. Van Heusen.

Jimmy, I didn't see you there.

Jimmy, I'm not sure how to say this, but--

What's going on?

Is everything okay?

We find ourselves

in a fierce legal battle over our finances at the moment.

What happened?

A few days ago, we met with a financial planner.

He was someone we've worked with for many years.

He was a friend, an equal.

- And now he's-- - He's been fooling us for years.

He failed to pay property taxes on all of our real estate

holdings, including this house.

We gave him total control

over our assets and finances because we trusted him.

And now it seems that he's fled the country with our money.

Everything is gone.

Dad, what's going on?

Bridgett, do you

remember the meeting we had about our finances the other day?

The one that was none of my concern?

Dad, are we going to lose our home?

I have our attorneys filing multiple lawsuits.

Someone has to find him, otherwise--

no, I will not let that happen.

This estate means everything to me.

Bridgett!

Come on, wait!

Sweetheart.

Jimmy, you've been invaluable to our family, but I'm

afraid we have to let you go.

Please forgive us.

There's nothing to forgive.

Family is the most important thing right now.

I'll go pack my things.

Shouldn't you go after her?

I understand how she's feeling.

Sometimes a young woman just needs space.

And sometimes she just needs

her mom to be there for her!

Jodie!

Look who it is.

Never thought I'd see you again.

Life's full of surprises.

Do you have my oxy or not?

Of course I do, princess.

Don't call me that.

Hey, Candyman's always available, whatever you need.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Pretty strange, right?

I guess we're not training today, are we?

Sure we are, just not here.

How are we going to train without Barkley?

You let me worry about that.

Come on, I'm kidnapping you.

Okay.

But if you tried to kidnap me, you

wouldn't make it past my grandpa and his shotgun.

Good to know.

Come on. Go get your stuff.

Right now?

- But I was-- - The only butt today

is going to be yours on top of a horse.

Now come on, let's go.

Okay.

Here we go.

Let's see if I can find Carol.

Don't go too far, okay?

Okay.

Excuse me, miss.

- Have you seen-- - Have I seen who or what?

Carol.

Have you seen Carol?

Yeah, my son and I

were just speaking to her in the guest cottage.

In the guest cottage?

Yeah, we're going to be staying there temporarily.

Temporary's good.

Pretty good.

Good, good, good.

Hey, Jodie, what are you guys doing here?

Ask him.

He kidnapped me.

Oh, that's just our little joke.

Mm.

Can we borrow one of your horses today?

Certainly.

They're in the barn.

You know where they are.

Come on.

Have fun.

Nice meeting you.

Enjoy your ride.

You too.

But she's not riding.

Come on.

Let's go get you on the horse, all right?

So why are we here?

Well, this is where it all began for you, kiddo.

This is where you learned how to ride your first horse.

That look on your face, it seems like you lost that look.

So we're here to help you fall in love with riding again.

- I thought I could use a little bit of help-- - Chester!

Hey, baby.

Let's get started.

There you are, kiddo.

Now you're riding.

Looking good.

All right.

You got the reins.

Let's go.

Breathe, breathe.

Hey, daydreamer.

Hey.

Dylan, right?

You remembered.

Come all this way to see little old me?

You know, if you really miss me, you could have just called.

Don't flatter yourself.

I just needed a bite to eat.

Who even calls anyone anymore?

I still call people.

How old are you, like, 40?

I'm not old, just old-fashioned.

You know, if you are actually hungry,

I could be convinced to stick around and make you a burger.

That'd be nice.

Thank you.

Awesome.

One burger coming up.

Oh, and what do you want?

And apparently, he skipped town.

Wow.

Yeah, and they can't find him.

That's a doozy.

Yeah, I know.

It just happened.

I feel really bad for the Van Heusen's.

You know, Jimmy, they're going to be okay.

You got to worry about your own hide.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess.

Hey, Jimmy.

I have an idea.

Why don't you come work here for me?

Wait.

Wait, really?

You mean it?

Yeah.

You're here all the time anyways.

You're great with the kids.

And honestly, I really could use the help, Jimmy.

I can't thank you enough.

I mean, this place is like a second home to me.

Carol, thank you.

Ah, ah, ah, ah.

No.

Thank you.

I'm on manure duty?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm on manure duty.

Thank you.

No problem.

Manure duty.

Hey, kiddo.

Carol's got me doing something real quick.

After that, we'll be good to go?

All right.

Hi, I'm Jodi.

I haven't seen this horse before.

That makes two of us.

Oh.

- I didn't know you're-- - Blind?

That's what they keep telling me.

Sorry.

You don't have to apologize.

Hi, Jodi.

I'm David.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

My mom and I are living here for a little while.

When we were moving, she didn't say there'd be so many horses.

It's awesome.

You should try riding them.

I wish.

Carol helped me when I needed it.

Maybe she can help you ride this guy.

What's his name?

This is Starfire.

He's beautiful.

Want to help me brush him?

Yeah.

Here you go.

Side by side racing at its finest.

Here they come across the bunch.

Next up's--

Couple rounds in the back?

Couple rounds back.

Thank you.

I appreciate it.

Hey.

Hi.

How are you?

Oh, my god.

I missed you.

Good to see you.

You look so good out there!

Come on in.

[indistinct]... Ricky Miller doing a great job in that 16-4--

You looked good out there.

Thanks.

Car is close, but it still needs a little fine

tuning before the race.

Hmm.

I thought Jodie was coming today.

She had an unexpected training session.

Ah.

Is that what really happened?

Yes, but she's not exactly happy I'm seeing someone.

Anything I can do to maybe help smooth

things over a little bit or--?

No.

Thank you for asking.

Hmm.

No problem.

Miller!

How'd you like that view?

Woo!

Woo!

Who is that?

Nobody important.

He beat me once.

He ain't ever going to do it again.

I still can't get over the fact that you like drinking coffee.

8:00 a.m.'s will change a person.

That's right.

How's college?

Good.

Well, how are you doing?

Mm, fine.

Well, how are things with Dylan?

How do you know about Dylan?

That little squirt set me up.

Go easy on her.

She did it because she loves you.

Hey, I got an idea.

What do you say you two go riding horses

together up at Helping Hooves?

We'll start you slow, get you riding before summer's end.

Hey, before you know it, you'll be flying.

Let me stop you right there.

This is not how this works.

What do you mean?

First, I can't ride.

You know that.

Second, don't ask me about my love life.

It's weird.

And third, why did you even ask me to coffee in the first place?

We're not friends.

Of course, we are.

No, we're not.

You used to be my horse trainer, and then you traded me

in for some new model.

So now you're just some guy.

I'm-- I'm just-- I'm not a kid anymore.

Your pep talks don't work on me.

Look, I get that.

But you got to understand something-- we're all here for you.

You are right about one thing, though.

This whole coffee thing, it is weird.

Wait until I'm old enough to drink.

I do not want to be thinking about that one.

Come on, kiddo.

Heels down.

Heels down.

There you go.

Chin up.

Breathe.

You're cutting your corners.

Come on.

Ride deep into those corners.

How's she looking?

Better.

But if she competed today, she wouldn't finish top five.

How'd I do?

Or were you not watching?

No, I was-- it doesn't matter.

How do you feel you did?

It felt sloppy.

I thought she was great.

It's Chester.

He's not built for competition.

Now come on, don't blame the horse, all right?

You can do this if you both pull it together, all right?

Shake it off.

Come back at it in 10.

Great job today, bug.

I'm going to go check on her.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it, right?

I've seen worse from her.

I didn't know my seeing Rick would affect her like this.

Look, if I may, I

don't think it has anything to do with you seeing anyone.

I think she just needs to know that she's a priority.

Jodie has been my top priority

from the moment I knew I was pregnant with her.

She's my everything!

I'm sorry.

Kids, right?

Right, yeah.

Hold on.

Sorry.

Yeah.

Oh, don't ignore it on my account.

I'm fine.

No.

No, it's-- it's not you, all right?

- It's just-- - Is that the Samantha?

Yeah.

If I may, you deserve to be happy again.

Yeah, I guess.

Come on, bud.

Hey, Jodie.

I was hoping you'd be here today.

What's wrong?

It's nothing.

I'm fine.

What's up?

You got me thinking.

Carol said Starfire was a great horse to learn to ride on,

but he got injured.

Her team is trying to retrain him.

I was wondering if you could help me.

I'd love to.

So how long has Starfire been here for?

He's been here for six months,

but seems to be doing really good.

Is he your favorite horse?

Yeah, he's my favorite.

My favorite's Chester.

Have you seen him yet?

No, I haven't.

I haven't been to the diner in years.

I love it here.

I try to come here every time I'm home.

A lot of-- a lot of really good memories.

I have a few places like that.

I'd love to see 'em.

So how long have you been in town?

A couple weeks.

I'm going be here all summer.

My uncle's health has been a bit shaky lately,

so I'm helping him out until then.

You're only here for a few months, then?

Maybe.

Why?

You gonna miss me?

I guess that depends.

On what?

On what we want this summer to be like.

I mean, have you thought about what

you want to do with your life?

Oh, that's easy.

I want to run my own business.

After you finish college, though, right?

Don't need to.

Graduated high school when I was 16 with enough

credits to get my associate's degree.

And then when I was 18, I got my bachelor's degree.

And at 20, I got my MBA.

Wow, that's impressive.

I guess you basically put your whole life on hold

for your uncle then, right?

Yeah, he needed my help.

That's what family does for each other.

Don't embarrass me, okay?

Excuse me.

You happen to see that girl that I was training with earlier?

She come by here?

Jodie, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Did you see where she went?

I think I saw her walking toward the stalls.

Great, good.

Hopefully, she doesn't take too long.

We got a lot of training today.

Is Jodie your daughter?

Uh, no.

No, I am the trainer.

She is the defending horse show champion rider.

She's kind of lost her step.

So her mom and I, we're trying to get her up to speed.

Oh, you're with Jodie's mom.

No. Oh, no. No, we're just friends.

Not like that.

I'm single.

Single as a Pringle.

Don't Pringles come in a container

with, like, dozens of them inside?

Yeah.

You know, I never really understood that saying.

Jimmy, Tiffany's here.

I'll be there in a second.

Who's Tiffany?

Another girl.

Another girl?

No.

No, no, no, no, no.

She and I-- well, she--

would you like to have coffee with me sometime?

Oh.

Jimmy, you seem like a nice guy, but I

feel like I have to say no.

Oh.

Yeah, no.

Right, I understand.

No, I get it.

Yeah. Thanks for asking.

- It's really nice, but-- - Yeah, yeah.

No, you know, I'm busy. You're busy.

Hey, guys. What happened here?

Nothing.

Just two people talking.

Right.

Hey, Jimmy, guess what?

David showed us another horse we can use.

Carol.

Carol.

This is it.

This is where I came for physical rehab after my injury.

There were times that were really hard,

but Carol and her staff always kept my spirits up.

And you said I was the impressive one.

Oh, good.

She's here.

Starfire was abandoned by his family and his last owner.

When he came here, he was injured.

We need to show him lots of love and care

so he can build up his trust in us.

I want to help David get Starfire back in riding condition.

What about your training?

We got to get you and Chester competition ready.

This would be a part of my training.

Hey, guys.

Hey, squirt.

You remember Dylan, right?

Yeah.

You think you're slick, don't you?

What?

We need to have a talk.

Okay.

Hey.

Awkward.

Looks like your leg and your back are doing better.

Stop trying to change the subject.

I don't know what the subject is.

Yes, you do.

No, I don't.

You set me up with Dylan.

Oh, that.

Yes, that.

- I just-- - You just what?

I just thought you could use a friend.

I have friends.

Who?

So, is he nice?

Yes, he's really nice.

Crazy smart, too.

You're welcome.

We should get back before they wonder what happened to us.

They're going to think you attacked me.

Mm.

Hey, you two.

Hey.

You ladies figure out what you needed to?

Yep, did you?

Yeah.

About that, Jodie.

It doesn't look like I'll be able to help

you break in Starfire.

But I can.

If you help David and me get Starfire ready,

Jimmy will have time to work with the other students.

I think we can make a deal.

That means double the workload for you and me both, kiddo.

You up for it?

I've never been afraid of a little hard work.

Besides, Carol trained me on how to ride a horse.

It's only fair that I train a horse how to be ridden in return.

All right, you're hired.

You hear that, Bridgett?

Looks like I'm going to be working with horses all summer,

like you and Barkley.

There isn't any horse like Barkley.

But I am happy for you, squirt.

I'm kind of jealous, too.

I wish I could work with horses all day.

Oh, my friend, it looks like you are hired.

Carol will hire just about anybody these days.

Come on, let's go.

Shoulders up.

Chin up.

Breathe.

Breathe.

Don't forget to breathe.

There you go.

Nice job, kiddo.

You're getting good.

Yeah, I can't thank you enough for teaching me

how to ride.

Of course.

We had a deal, right?

Yeah.

Can I ride some more?

Sure, yeah.

Go have fun.

Thanks.

So that's Tiffany.

Is she another one of your champion riders?

No, but she is a very special young lady to me.

You have a real gift with kids.

Yeah.

Well, I don't know.

I like working with kids.

And they can accomplish wonders if you just

teach them a little discipline, a little work ethic, you know?

Really are amazing.

I feel bad about earlier.

What?

No.

No, no, I kind of sprung it on you.

I don't really know why I did.

You don't?

I'm sorry.

I've been hurt in the past, so I tend to have my guard up.

I definitely know a thing or two about being guarded.

Then part of me thinks, take a chance.

It's only coffee, right?

Right.

Yeah, it's only coffee.

What do you say you have coffee with me this weekend?

I'd love to.

Great.

I will see you there.

See you there.

Wasn't she so good today?

She was.

I'm so glad I was able to make it today.

I mean, balancing this schedule is not easy.

I think it might be time to have Rick over for dinner.

Oh, no way.

I couldn't do that.

I mean, you like Rick, don't you?

Yes.

And you like Jodie?

What kind of question is that?

Well, then I think it's time to bring the two of them together.

And besides, I'd like to talk to this man myself.

Dad.

Don't worry.

I'll be nice.

I promise.

Thank you.

Oh, I didn't realize you'd be here for this.

Are you sure you want to get rid of these things?

Yeah, I'm not going to need them.

Maybe someone else can be the champion.

Hi.

Hey, dad.

How'd we do?

Thanks for your help today.

It means a great deal.

That's what families do.

Our future is uncertain.

Our debt is enormous.

The attorneys are costing us a small fortune.

Maybe someone will find this guy and we can get some of it back.

I'm so sorry, sweetheart.

I-- I had to sell Barkley.

What?

You can't get rid of him.

- He's my-- he's your-- - He's the family's horse.

He's family!

I'm so sorry, Bridgett.

If there was any other way--

Come on, Barkley.

Let's take one final ride.

Get away!

Barkley?

Hiya!

Come on!

Hiya.

Come on.

Come on, you stupid horse.

Come on.

No!

Barkley!

Get in here.

Come on.

No!

Hey, that's enough!

This is my horse now.

Bridgett, I'm so sorry.

We didn't mean for this to--

So, what are you going to do?

What can I do?

I don't know.

- It's just like-- - Hey, princess.

Hold up.

You're with Dylan Bracket?

That's hilarious.

You guys know each other?

Yeah.

We used to hang out back in the day,

until he wanted to become some big school nerd.

I decided to grow up.

You're still selling poison to people.

Beats working at some dumpy food joint.

What do you want, Jared?

Just grabbing a bite to eat at my favorite stop in town.

Oh, and Princess, whatever you need,

the Candyman is at your service.

What?

You never said Jared was the one selling you pain pills.

I don't get my pills from-- Why are you judging me?

Look, I'm sorry I didn't say anything.

It's embarrassing, okay?

I won't buy any more, not from him or from anyone else.

I promise.

I gotta go to work.

I'll call you later.

Dylan?

Jodie, your mom says

you're the reigning champion horse show rider.

Yeah, I guess.

I was hoping you could come and see me race.

Maybe some of that champions mojo can rub off on me.

If you think about it, a racetrack

is kind of similar to a horse ring.

I think you might like it.

Can I be excused?

Jodie, be polite.

We're not finished talking.

It's okay.

Okay, take your plate to the sink.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

You don't have to apologize.

You know, Rick, Jodie is a really wonderful young girl.

But, um, this is hard.

She's adjusting.

And it's going to take some time.

Sir, I care for your daughter very much.

And I know I'll care for your granddaughter just as much.

She can have all the time she needs.

So, how long have you trained riders?

It's been about 15 years.

But now Jodie and Tiffany are your only students?

What happened?

About 10 years ago, my wife and daughter

got in a car accident and died.

And pretty much everything after that changed.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

But one good thing did come from that,

and that is my daughter's heart found a home in a sweet girl.

And that sweet little girl's name is Tiffany.

That's why she's so special to you.

Yeah.

I'm sure it's wonderful, but it must be hard as well.

Yeah, it has its hard days.

But for the most part, I stay positive.

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

It's just someone I do not want to talk to right now.

Okay.

I guess now it's my turn to be vulnerable.

What do you mean?

When my son's father and I were expecting,

he was so proud he was going to be a dad, you know?

He would have a child to raise as his pride and joy.

I remember that feeling.

But when David was five, he started losing his vision.

And he was completely blind by the time he was 10.

David's father became distant and ashamed.

After a while, he couldn't even be in the same room with us.

And then one day, I found him with another woman.

So we separated after that, but I always

felt like I should have known, you know?

The signs were there.

I am sorry you and David had to go through that.

That sounds awful.

Don't be.

We're not victims.

And we got through it together.

And David is thriving.

Sorry.

I did not expect our date to get this deep.

You know what?

Don't apologize.

It's only coffee, right?

Right.

Right.

Aw.

Back so soon?

I had to get rid of the bag.

Next time, toss the guy, not the bag.

Just give me what I need.

Good to see you again, princess.

Dylan?

Wait.

Hold on.

Would you stop?

How did you find me here?

Did you follow me?

You lied to me!

I need the pills for my pain.

Why do you have such a problem with that?

When I was a kid, my dad was addicted to prescription pills.

He always tried to quit, but he could never

take the withdrawals.

One night, he took a bunch of pills, he went to sleep,

and he never woke up.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know.

I just don't want something like that to happen to you.

Nothing will happen to me, I promise.

Just let me get through these last few and then I'll stop.

Dylan, wait.

You're going to leave?

Are you serious?

Can we just talk about it?

Wow.

She's gotten much better.

Yeah.

Here we go.

Chin up.

All right, breathe.

Oh, no.

Who's that?

An old girlfriend, is she?

That's the woman whose car crashed into his wife and daughter.

Hey, what are you doing here?

No, you don't call me here. I'm at my work right now.

Yeah, but I need to talk to you.

No, I can't do this. No, I'm sorry.

No.

Mr. Campbell?

I've got nothing to say to you.

Please.

It's taken me all these years to even build up

the courage to face you.

Mister, please don't make my mommy cry?

That your little girl?

Yeah.

This is Abby.

Look, I know I messed up, but I went to prison.

I went to rehab.

And when I was released, I got a job at the rehab facility.

And I've devoted my whole life to helping people not

make the same mistakes I did.

But none of it matters without your forgiveness.

Look, it's really good to hear that you--

you got your life put back together, really.

But you come in here, to my work,

looking for forgiveness on the spot?

No, I'm sorry.

You're asking way too much of me right now.

I tried calling, but I--

Here you are.

I was wondering where you disappeared to.

I had to get this done.

Right now?

I was thinking maybe we could go someplace for dinner tonight.

I'm sorry, but I-- I don't really feel like going out tonight.

Jimmy, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Sandy told me who that woman was.

I know everything.

She told you the whole story?

When I first saw that woman,

I instantly became so jealous and worried.

I thought maybe she was an old--

it doesn't matter what I thought.

But when I realized what I was doing, I--

I'm not saying that I understand your pain,

but I do know how hard it can be to let

go of something or someone.

But this-- this really needs to get done.

I just hope he's okay.

He's always there for all of us, and I

want him to know that we're here for him too.

He's been helping me get ready so much for the show.

And now that it's so close--

Jodie, do you think you'll win the horse show title?

I don't know.

But even if I don't, I'm proud of the progress I've made.

And Starfire getting so much better has been amazing.

Jodie, I think you're pretty incredible.

Would it be okay if I could see your face?

Sure, but how can you see my face?

Close your eyes.

Wow.

Would you want to go on a date sometime?

Oh.

Um, thank you.

That's sweet, but--

I wish I could see the look on your face.

It's a joke.

We're friends.

Oh.

You got me.

I should probably find Jimmy and get back to training.

I've got a lot of work to do if I want

to win that championship again.

Bye, David.

It was worth a shot.

You stupid horse!

You're losing me money!

I could lash you head to hoof!

Bridgett?

Mom, Dad, what are you guys doing here?

Shouldn't you be selling more of my things?

We've been looking for you.

We wanted to let you know we heard from the Davis family.

And tomorrow, Jodie's going to be

competing for the title in the horse show championships.

Since they've shown us so much support,

we thought it'd be best to go.

Maybe instead of relying on others for support,

you should take some responsibility for what

you did to this family.

That's enough.

Bridgett.

Your father is doing everything he can.

Tomorrow will be fun.

It'll be like when I was competing.

Except this time, you'll be there.

See you then.

Up next we have number 80, - odie Davis, riding on Chester. - J

Jodie is the defending championship horse show

rider, going for her second consecutive title.

The last competitor to get two titles in a row

was Bridgett Van Heusen.

Hey.

Come on, man.

So how'd we do?

I got second place.

- Which is still really good. - That's great.

You should be proud of what you've done.

You did a great job with them.

Second place was really nice.

That's awesome.

Yeah.

Congratulations.

For what?

I didn't win.

Yeah, but you placed.

I mean, that's cool.

I know that face, that feeling.

When the pressure is too much, not getting in first

feels like getting in last.

How do you know what I'm feeling?

I've hardly spoken at all.

I've been busy.

With what?

Stuff!

Listen, we can go somewhere private if you want to talk.

No offense, but I don't think a child would really understand

anything I'm going through.

Hey, I've had some hard things happen to me too.

Really?

Like what?

Getting second place in a championship?

What a brat.

You calling me a brat?

Yes!

Ever since I got back, you have been the biggest brat ever.

You used to treat me so much worse for months

after I met you, but I still wanted to be your friend.

And I never called you names!

Don't act like you're better than me.

You're just mad because I did it without you this time.

I'm a better rider than you ever were.

You sure?

Because only one of us is a two-time champion.

And only one of us is a college dropout and a drug addict.

Ooh.

Take it easy, you two.

Come on.

What's going on?

Bridgett?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, Bridgett.

Hold on. Wait. What was that all about?

We're different people.

It was bound to happen.

What do you--

I don't even-- are you still taking those?

What about you?

Where have you been?

What do you mean where have I been?

You act like you care, but you don't.

You had time to find a new girlfriend and train Jodie,

but where were you when I needed you?

We worked together for over six years.

Six years!

And then I got hurt, and you went and found a new rider

to train and be a champion.

Look, I offered to train you--

Stop talking to me!

- Bridgett, I-- - Shut up!

- Dad-- Mom, can we please just-- - Not now, darling.

You're certain?

How can there be nothing else we can do?

Well, that's ridiculous!

Dad, what's going on?

The process to repossess our home

has started, and we don't have enough to stop it

from happening.

Oh, hey.

This is the rich girl I was telling you about.

Yeah, you're right.

She is hot.

So what, did you run out of oxy already or did

you just miss me?

You got anything stronger?

Plenty.

Are you sure you can handle it?

I got just the thing.

Enjoy, princess.

It's a wild ride.

Yeah, you know.

How come it's easier talking to horses

than it is talking to women?

Ms. Van Heusen, what's going on?

No, no.

I haven't seen Bridgett since earlier today.

Wait, what?

Oh, no.

Hey, Jodie.

Can I come in?

Winning isn't everything.

You know that, right?

It's not that.

Then what, bug?

What's got you down?

When I was training, you were paying attention to me.

And now that I'm not training anymore,

you'll probably go back to spending all of your time with Rick.

And I'll go back to feeling like I

don't matter to anyone anymore.

Jodie, you are the most important--

It's Jimmy.

Hey, Jimmy.

What's up?

What?

No, that's terrible.

I don't know where she is, but I know someone who might.

What did you give her?

I don't even know, man.

She said she wanted something stronger, but--

I think she OD'd.

We should get out of here.

Yeah, let's check her stuff though first.

All right.

Yeah.

Hey, hey!

Break it up!

Break it up!

Both of you, down on the ground!

Down the ground!

Hands behind your back!

Do you understand me?

Yes!

Do not move!

Ma'am, ma'am!

Ma'am, are you okay?

Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, respond.

Come on, ma'am.

Come on, come on, come on.

Wake up, wake up!

Come on.

Here we go.

Come on, ma'am.

Bridgett, sweetheart.

Come in.

Lunch is ready.

We'd love for you to come down and join us when you can.

You made lunch?

When's the last time you did that?

It's sandwiches, dear.

It really wasn't that difficult.

How are we doing with the house?

Not well.

It seems unlikely we can prevent what feels like the inevitable.

Truthfully, none of that matters to me at the moment.

I'm just so glad you're okay.

- Mom-- - I know.

You don't have to talk about it.

But you should know that your father and I,

we love you very much.

We don't always know how to express it, but we do.

We were both so worried.

There's no need to be.

For me, it was like taking a nap.

One second, I was angry--

You were waking up in a hospital bed.

They found fentanyl in your system.

Bridgett, you almost died.

You may have if it weren't for that boy.

Who?

I believe his name was Dylan.

When were you going to tell us about him?

It's all right.

I understand.

Your father and I met each other at a young age.

We've had our issues, of course.

But despite everything, we've always stuck it through,

even now.

I am hardly the person to judge you for what you have done.

But from what I can see, you are going down a path

that many don't make it back from.

During this difficult time, please don't push those away

who love you the most.

Lean on them.

Because now is when you need them the most.

I love you.

Hey, daydreamer.

It's me.

Sorry for not reaching out to you until now.

It's just I like you so much.

I like who you are.

You reminded me of my dad, and I got scared and angry.

I-- I shut down.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for walking away from you.

I understand if you never want to see me again.

If you ever need someone I'll be there for you.

You said you helped your dad?

Yeah.

Can you help me?

So this walk has been pretty quiet.

Sorry.

I've just got a lot on my mind.

Like what?

I feel like nobody wants me around anymore.

And they say I'm blind.

Hey, I poured my heart and soul out here.

Jodie, everyone loves you, but people get busy.

Don't let others tell you how happy you can be.

I know.

It's just been hard.

Come on.

So why'd you bring me on a walk if you're not going to talk?

Well, I had other intentions.

Thanks for distracting him, Jodie.

Honey, we're all here to give you the good news.

Mom, what's going on?

David, we have a surprise.

You're going to ride Starfire today.

You ready, baby?

Yes!

Here we go.

Yeah, just a few more.

Maybe about five more steps.

Hello.

Hi, David.

I'm right here, bud.

All right, David.

We've got about 10 steps to get to Starfire.

Okay, we're coming up on her back end, so you might want to kiss,

go--

Yeah, put your hand out.

That's a good idea.

Say hi.

One more step.

Two more.

There you go.

Okay, we're coming in on her backside.

We're feeling the saddle now.

Okay?

Yeah, the stirrup's right there.

Good job, good job.

Now, if you want to go forward and introduce yourself to her.

Keep going.

Feel on her shoulder.

That's good.

That's good.

Feel the neck.

There you go.

And then here.

Give me your hand and we're going to pet Starfire's nose.

Yeah.

Isn't that cool?

And we're going to-- Yes, right there.

One step up.

Two and three.

Touch the saddle.

Touch The saddle.

You've got it.

Now left foot.

There you go.

Right there.

Perfect.

Now you're going to swing that foot over.

There you go.

Saddle up.

Thumb over the top like that.

Yeah, nice.

There you go.

How's that feel?

Good.

All right.

We're ready to walk.

Ready?

One, two, three.

We're going to go.

Come on.

Yeah, there you go.

Good.

Good stuff.

You're looking good up there.

That's it.

So I think you're doing such a great job,

I think we got to give you control.

Are you ready?

Yeah.

All right.

How does Starfire feel?

Feels good.

Okay.

See if you can get her to walk around.

He looks great.

He's a natural.

A little bump of your heel.

A little bump.

And walk.

And everyone is okay?

Yeah, she's recovering all right.

Everyone's doing okay.

Just a little shaken up.

I would imagine so.

They're like family to you, huh?

Yeah, I guess-- I guess you can say they're pretty close.

Oh, wow.

Look at that.

Ah, ah, ah.

What?

Jimmy, what?

What are you doing?

I am stalling.

Look, I wanted to apologize to you.

At times, I'm present.

Other times, I am really distant.

And the reason for that is I was scared.

Never in a million years did I think

that I'd find anyone else that would make me feel this way.

What way?

Oh, god.

I practiced this speech, like, a thousand times.

Look at me.

I always tell the girls, attack your problems head on.

Jimmy, I don't need a fancy speech.

Just say it from your heart.

This is really nice, but it's not enough.

When I hear something funny,

you're the first person that I want to share it with.

And when I'm feeling bad, like, really bad,

all I need is your voice because that's the only thing that

makes me feel better.

And that frightens me because that means

I'm falling for you, Rebecca.

And I don't want to be scared anymore.

And I would really love to have you in my life.

Jimmy.

Yeah?

What took you so long?

When do you want to make the cake?

How about this afternoon?

Doesn't Rick race today?

Why don't we make it tonight when you get back

and bring it to Van Heusens first thing in the morning?

I-- I wanted to say something that I didn't get to earlier.

What is it?

You are the most important person I will ever have in my life.

You always will matter, and nothing will ever change that.

You promise?

I promise.

I'd always hope you find someone nice.

I was just scared I might lose you.

I'm sorry if I've been a brat.

You're not a brat.

And you will never lose me.

But thank you for saying that.

You know, your grandpa Bill already

gave Rick the stamp of approval.

And I think he's nice.

Even so, no one's opinion matters more to me than yours.

He seems like a nice guy.

If you're happy, then I'm happy.

The car's good, man.

I think we're good for tonight.

Don't need to make any changes.

- Just-- - Need help changing the tires?

Thanks.

Hey.

I didn't know you were coming to the track today.

Someone told me I should.

Oh, yeah?

Who's that?

Jodie wanted to see what stock car racing was all about.

Wow.

That's great, Jodie.

I'll teach you anything you want to know.

Mom, can I talk to Rick alone for a minute?

Sure.

- Okay. - Fine with me.

I want to apologize for being rude to you.

I'm sorry.

Thanks.

I really appreciate that.

You just keep making my mom happy.

Yes, ma'am.

Everything okay?

Everything's good.

Your car is super cool.

Thanks.

You ever thought about driving in a race car before?

Since the moment I saw one.

Don't give her any ideas.

That's never going to happen.

Hmm.

We'll see about that.

So how's it going in here?

Everything's good.

Well, what do you think?

It's great.

Why is it so empty?

Race cars don't need all that stuff regular cars have.

We have this instead.

It's going to be a lot of horsepower.

I know you like horses.

You're going to be able to handle it?

Yeah.

Sure?

It's your last chance to back out.

All right, we're off.

You ready?

Here we go.

Let's go!

You look like you need a ride.

I do.

But Barkley's gone, and I don't have the heart

to ride another horse.

I can understand that.

Look, I know I've never been easy to deal with.

And I'm still upset about how I spoke to you the last time we

saw each other.

But why have you put up with me all this time?

You know, I ask myself that same question all the time.

I still don't have a good enough answer.

Hey.

I saw you guys standing over here.

I thought I'd join.

Hey, squirt.

How long are you going to call me that?

Always.

What were you guys talking about?

Bridgett was just

asking me how we've been able to put up with her for so long,

and I couldn't come up with a good enough reason.

Well, that's easy.

It's because we love her, and that's what families do.

Hey, where are you going?

It seems like you two have got this under control.

You aren't going to stay?

I'll be around.

Besides, I got this girl I need to talk to.

Ooh.

Nice work, Jimmy.

Nice day out.

Yeah.

Hey, I'm sorry for what I said to you.

I didn't mean any of it.

We both said some things we didn't mean.

I'll accept your apology if you can accept mine.

I can do that.

So, when are you leaving?

A few hours.

I'll be gone for a little bit.

I want to write to you while you're gone.

How long will you be there?

Mm, I don't know.

If I'm being honest, I'm a little bit nervous.

You're going to be okay.

You're the strongest girl I know.

That's funny coming from you.

Why?

Cause you're the strongest girl I know.

Uh, no.

I'm not strong at all.

I need other people all the time.

Needing other people doesn't make you weak.

For most of your life you couldn't stand up straight,

and now you're a championship horse rider.

Sure, other people helped you and encouraged you

along the way, but you did that, okay?

So remember that when you work to reclaim your title.

I'm not going to compete next year.

Why not?

I want to ride because I love it,

not because I can win some meaningless trophy.

Well, if you're not going to ride horses next year, then

what are you going to do instead?

I don't know yet.

But for the first time in a while,

I'm looking forward to figuring it out.

Thank you, Jodie.

Call me "Squirt."

It's been a crazy summer, huh, squirt?

Very crazy.

How are you feeling?

Nervous, but anxious to get better.

We know you'll come back from rehab at your absolute best.

Is that all of your things, ma'am?

That's it.

Thank you, Ronald.

Let's get in the car.

Are you hungry?

No, I'm okay.

I'm just going to put my stuff upstairs.

Wait a moment, sweetheart.

We have something we'd like to speak with you about first.

We hope you don't have anything planned

for tomorrow because we've put together

a little gathering to celebrate your return at Helping Hooves.

There's nothing to celebrate.

What you went through is not an easy thing.

We are all so proud of you.

So you're okay with having

a daughter who went to rehab instead of school?

We're honored to have a daughter who came back home.

This house didn't feel right without you in it.

I feel bad I missed so much time in this house before it's gone.

The party wasn't the only thing we wanted to tell you about.

There's something else.

While you were away,

your father tracked down the man who stole our money.

Dad, how?

I took some advice from a young woman I admire.

I faced the problem head on.

We still have a lengthy court battle ahead,

but our attorneys are confident that most of our money

should be getting returned to us.

We're not losing the home.

You mean it?

Mm-hmm.

That is something to celebrate.

Grandpa, can you get the eggs, please?

Oh, sure.

Oh.

Hey, Carol.

Yes, we are finishing up the cakes tonight,

and we'll be over first thing tomorrow.

Sure, I'd be happy to.

Carol wants to talk to you.

Okay.

Hey, Carol.

What's up?

Hey, what did I miss?

I think that's the call.

Really? You think so?

- Mm. - She'd be perfect for it.

Mm-hmm.

Here you go.

So what did Carol want to speak to you about?

She offered me a job at Helping Hooves

to help train other riders.

Wow.

That's great, Jodie.

Yeah, but I said no.

I told her I want to learn how to drive race cars instead.

All right, let's get back to this.

Yeah.

Oh, it's looking so good.

Will you give me those?

Yeah, yeah.

Thank you.

That one there.

Hey, guys.

Bridgett, no way!

Hey!

So good to see you.

- You look good. - Thanks.

I want you to meet someone.

Come here.

Hi.

Oh, sorry.

No, it's okay.

I know we haven't been officially introduced yet.

I'm Bridgett.

I'm Rebecca.

It's so nice to meet you.

Jimmy talks about you all the time.

Whatever he's told you about me, don't believe him.

It's all good things.

Really?

Then you definitely shouldn't believe him.

Well, come on, kiddo.

You're not that bad.

So, why are you dating Jimmy?

Did you lose a bet or something?

I'm sorry?

You're way too pretty for him.

Uh.

Bridgett!

I have so much to talk to you about.

Come on, let's go.

Okay.

Oh.

Okay, so what is wrong with me?

Nothing.

Nothing?

- I mean-- - Are you sure?

Is your leg okay?

I appreciate it,

but you don't have to ask me how I'm doing all the time.

I just care about you.

So, are you feeling okay?

I'm fine.

Thanks, Squirt.

Then why can't you enjoy the party?

Hey, daydreamer.

Dylan.

I'll give you two a minute.

Sorry I was late.

I would have been here earlier, but I

had to close the restaurant down for the holiday.

Yeah, I can't believe it's Thanksgiving already.

Where does the time go?

Yeah.

I didn't think

you'd want to be around someone who messed up so bad.

What do you mean?

This is where the girl I've fallen in love with lives.

Come on.

I think the feast is ready.

Hi.

Hi.

David, we really love having you here.

If it was up to me, I would never leave.

She's here.

But we're missing that turkey.

When's it coming here, huh?

I feel like I can eat the whole thing.

I hope not.

We all want to eat.

Maybe I'll save you...

Hey, everyone.

Sorry to interrupt.

I wanted to introduce you to someone.

She was my counselor at the rehab clinic.

And when I heard there was a celebration for me,

I wanted to invite her because I would have never made it

through my program without her.

Everyone, this is Samantha.

- Mr. Campbell, if I-- - You know each other?

Jimmy?

We're here for you if you need help.

This is one of those problems you need to face head on.

Yeah.

I'm just here to support and celebrate Bridgett.

I was her primary contact, and many of us worked with her.

But make no mistake, she deserves all the credit.

I can leave if you'd like.

You helped Bridgett in rehab?

Look, I'm not going to lie.

When I saw you come in right now, I had this wave of emotion--

hate, anger, guilt, pain, this overwhelming sense of pain.

And through all that, there's this one thing

echoing in my mind, and it's that my wife and my daughter

wouldn't want me living the rest of my life feeling that pain.

It's not fair to me.

That's not fair to those that I care about.

I forgive you, Samantha.

I forgive you.

Oh.

I should probably get going.

No.

Please, stay.

There's plenty of food.

- Really, it's-- - Please.

Right, it's Thanksgiving.

Besides, we have a lot to be thankful for right now.

Come on.

Yeah... yeah.

Let's eat.

Hey, everyone.

It's time for a picture.

Let's clean up your plates and let's go.

Whoa, how fun!

You know what'd be fun?

Jodie, Bridgett, what do you say we get you

two back up on a horse for old time's sake?

I like that idea.

I don't know.

I don't know if I can do it.

I don't have a horse.

Barkley!

But how?

He's all yours again, Bridgett.

We've gone through so much this year,

and you've overcome everything.

And we're all so very proud of you.

Thank you.

Let's go get you up on that horse, where you belong.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to introduce to you our two

championship horse show riders, Jodie Davis and Bridgett Van

Heusen.

If this is a dream, don't wake me up.

This isn't a dream.

And you're a big reason why it's so special.

You too.

So, what do we do now that we've conquered

every mountain we faced?

We find another mountain to climb.

I wouldn't want to face any other mountain with anyone else.

Okay.

Three, two, one.
